This wonderful old German Heirloom variety produces multiple clusters of 20-40 scarlet red one ounce sweet grape like cherry tomatoes on large and vigorous plants with many branches. To say that this variety is productive is an understatement. This is one of the few original cherry tomato varieties that have retained the full tomato flavour that modern varieties have lost. Indeterminate, 80 days from transplant.

Cultivation Advice

Growing Instructions

Sow in spring 1/16 inch deep.
Germination takes around 6-14 days at 65-75F.
Transplant the seedlings when large enough to handle into 3 inch pots.
Grow on under cooler conditions and when about 8 inches tall, either plant in their growing position in the greenhouse or gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions and plant out 18-24 inches apart in a warm and sunny spot in moist, fertile well drained soil and keep watered.
Provide support and tie in regularly.
This variety will grow large and produce fruit from the numerous side shoots.
Remove the lower leaves from mid season onwards to encourage the fruit to ripen and discourage pests.
